Algo 4® - An exclusive bio-mimetic complex that replenishes the skin continuously to restore radiance and energy with an increased concentration of Blue Thistle to nourish and intensely hydrate the skin cells.
Undaria Pinnatifida – PROTECTS – activates the skin cells’ natural protection systems against oxidative stress.
Porphyridium Cruentum – OXYGENATES – stimulates microcirculation and cellular oxygenation improving the skin metabolism. A valuable addition to Algologie’s seaweed family of essential skin plants. Rich in essential fatty acids such as Omega 3 & 6, Amino Acids and Carotenoids (pro vitamin A). The rich Polysaccharide content improves the skin’s ability to hold moisture, reduce TEWL and encourage the production of Hyaluronic Acid, resulting in a healthy circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Blue Thistle – HYDRATES – helps the skin manufacture its molecules of life: lipids (intercellular cement, ceramides), proteins (collagen, elastin and keratin) and sugars. Cell regeneration improves.
Rock Samphire – STIMULATES – all skin cells and particularly the fibroblasts. Increased production of molecules of the extracellular skin matrix (proteoglycans, collagen, elastin).
Gulf Stream Seawater – REMINERALIZES – rich in 96 minerals and trace elements, to remineralise and balance the skin before treating it.
Laminaria – Powerful hydration and barrier function properties. Minerals and trace element to nourish and support cellular health and reproduction……Particularly over 40 years of age.
